HB4698 amends the Medical Practice Act of 1987 to prohibit medical licensees from dividing, sharing, or splitting professional service fees with others, except under specific conditions. The bill allows fee division if the patient is fully informed and the division is proportional to the services performed. It also permits payments to entities providing billing, administrative, or collection services based on a percentage of fees, a flat fee, or other arrangements, provided the licensee controls the fees charged and collected.
